That BBC report has been amended to clarify that the Aquadom is a separate attraction housed in the same building as the Berlin Sealife and isn’t part of it as people might have thought.

It’s incredibly lucky that it didn’t happen at a peak visiting time, that amount of flying glass and water would have been absolutely dreadful to explode with people around it.

Two people have been hospitalised with injuries from flying glass.

So imagine how much worse it could have been full of visitors and hotel guests.

All 1,500 fish in that tank haven't survived, which is a shame. There are ongoing efforts to save 500 other fish in a second tank below.

Just read up on it, SeaLife operate the AquaDom but it's owned by another company. It's ticketed separately to their main aquarium.
